About

  • SECRIST | BEACH is a reimagining of the contemporary art world: at a time of great transformation and migration away from the gallery space, 1801 West Hubbard street has reinstated the power of presence, community, and exploration. 

     

    Under bow-trussed ceilings, the space simultanously shares synergistic solo shows alongside group invitational shows of emerging to established artists. Situated in the middle of the gallery space is a modern-day Salon, curated by the artists across their practices, inspirations, and concepts, and embodied in artist discussions, events, performances, and more.

     

    Carrie Secrist Gallery, at first Gallery A, was established in 1992 in the River North gallery district of Chicago. The adventurous spirit with which Carrie began reaches its full fruition with SECRIST | BEACH at 1801 W. Hubbard Street, showered with light, conversation, and an intimacy with artwork, artists, and ideas.
